Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although we graded this facility very poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing score this year. We gave it a B- in that area. There are a host of criteria within this grade. Many of these datapoints reflect staffing levels. This nursing home provides 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. In fact, it scored well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.
Facility Inspections
This facility did not receive favorable government inspection reports in recent years. In fact, it received just a D for its inspection grade, which was unfortunately its second best category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection scores. One critical factor is health deficiencies. We would scrutinize the level of severity of the deficiencies. This facility was assessed 3 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we found is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a threat to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second worse score is short-term care, where it earned just a D in that category. This is a relatively poor grade. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Based on its poor grade in this category, we were not surprised to discover this nursing home provides substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most nursing homes. The final datapoint we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 3.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics sunk this facility's short-term care grade.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we scored was long-term care. This facility was given a rock bottom grade of F in that area. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. Once we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to discover that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
